March 2020: The Badsender team met a few days ago for a good Brainstorming session. We decided on this occasion to take advantage of our "09:31 meetings" to offer you podcasts which will undoubtedly reflect the good atmosphere of the team. The goal: to keep a frequency of 1 podcast per month, maybe more (it also depends on your enthusiasm) .
The subject of this first podcast?
What is "09h31"? Who are the team members? What is the activity of Badsender?
What is the 9h31?
The "09h31" is a meeting twice a week via Teams, on Mondays and Thursdays, that we have been holding for 6-12 months (the range is wide ), where we all get together to discuss what we've done over the weekend, what's new on the professional front, introduce the rest of the team to new trades and have a convivial moment. In theory, it lasts 29 minutes... Sometimes less, sometimes more.
The team
Marion Moillet
One of the partners, but also Project Director at Badsender. Marion, like most of us, didn't start with Digital: Marion first studied Hotel and Restaurant Management and then progressively switched to a professional reconversion. Before arriving at Badsender, she worked at MailingReporta small French router based in Avignon.
Marion Duchatelet
Marion started directly in the world of emailing: she first did an internship at Cabestan, a French router. She spent ten years there, from the beginning of the company to its expansion. Marion then decided to leave Cabestan to join a small database-oriented agency in Lille, Market Space. After the birth of her little girl, Marion decides to accompany Badsender on a reinforcement in Council. Marion has been working with Badsender for 2 years now on the consulting aspects, Strategy, tool recommendation and his "little darling": The Boss, the Email Builder of Badsender.

Second professional experience as an emailing project manager and campaign manager (mainly on Adobe Campaign) at Soft Computing (which will also become a brand of the Epsilon group). Fabien then got closer to Badsender via the Blog to join the team 3 years ago as an emailing integrator and campaign manager.
Thomas Defossez
After a Bachelor's degree in Plastic Arts in Tourcoing, Thomas joined the IUFM in Lille to become a school teacher. He left this path to make a professional reconversion and obtained the diploma of Multimedia Designer Integrator at the Efficom school. (with Rémi Parmentier as an HTML/CSS teacher).

Grégory Van Gilsen

Jonathan studied for two years at Sciences Po, in Belgium. Then, he changes his path to take a year of courses in a multimedia writing school (site design, storytelling). He got a job as a student in a small agency and decided to leave his studies to join the agency. He stayed there for 2 years before working for RailEurope. In 2007, Jonathan started working as a freelancer: Kunfuo (ahhhh the history of Badsender ). The WordPress that Badsender uses today is still the one created in 2007. In 2008, the Bisnode group became Jonathan's customer. Jonathan then became an employee of Bisnode from 2008 to 2013, while retaining the Kunfluo business. In 2010, Kunfluo becomes Badsender: it's mainly the Blog as we know it today. In 2012-2013, Jonathan left Bisnode and set up again as an independent Consultant.
